Registry Must-Have: Organization

With the average age for a first wedding in Michigan being 28, it is true to say that most engaged people have at least an apartment or two of household items already.

This was definitely true of Marta and her new husband. Now in their first house together, and the only thing they seem to lack is a place to put everything. That is why she came up with these must-have items to add to your registry.

Guaranteed to ease the transition of two (households) becoming one.

closet

These organization systems are a breeze to put up, and maximize space like no other. Register for this at Lowe's for a fraction of the cost at The Container Store or Ikea.


hangers

This new line of hangers from Real Simple are amazing. Half the space of traditional hangers (there is room for both of you in the new closet), plus they keep even sweaters hanging perfectly. Add them to your Bed, Bath and Beyond registry.


underbed

Take advantage of under the bed space with this great wheeled storage. Perfect for linens and off-season clothes. You can register for these at Target, Bed, Bath and Beyond or any hardware store.

Color Your 2011 Wedding with Honeysuckle

Another style update from our in-house newly wed, Marta...

istock_generic_140659antone has selected the bold, reddish-pink Honeysuckle as its 2011 Color of the Year, calling it "a brave new color for a brave new world."

While Turquoise, 2010's Color of the Year, served as an escape of sorts, Honeysuckle confidently goes a step further to encourage and uplift... Just what you want for your wedding day bliss!
